The dimensions 47.6 from lug to lug, 42 wide by 10.6 mm thick, with a weight of 89gr all included! The characteristics now: World time function The world time function displays the time in 29 time zones and major cities around the world.

And the best for last: Solar operation Solar cells provide an autonomous and environmentally friendly energy supply. The surplus solar energy is stored in an accumulator. This is one of my favorite watches that I wear very often despite more expensive models. Any flaws? Yes, there are definitely some... The acrylic glass is resistant to breakage but which quickly got scratched... admittedly during a DIY session... The very small LCD screen requiring good eyesight and finally The LED lighting that illuminates ONLY the LCD dial... too bad But there is one thing I will tell you to convince you to have this little tool watch is the price: 46 euros!!!!
